Q: What's the difference between an event manager vs hiring an event coordinator?

A: An event manger is assigned to every event. They will coordinate the set-up of all tables, linens, chairs, and any other rentals that are contracted through The Winfield Inn. The event manager will remain onsite through dinner service to ensure seamless service for you and your guests. An event coordinator can be hired as an additional service. They participate in the early stages of planning, all the way until the last guest leaves. Click here for more details on our event coordination package. >>
